Hi Everyone! I hope you’re ready for today’s workout! In this workout I alternated 30 seconds of dumbbell exercises between each 50-second interval. I hope you enjoy this workout. The format is a little bit different, but it is really great for your body to switch up the challenge. For the last two exercises I used a chair, but you can also use a stability ball or a bench. Using a chair for back extensions was tricky, because technically the surface you are on should come up to the hinge area of your hip (where you bend). It is much easier to position correctly on a stability ball. I chose to use the chair in this workout because not everyone has a stability ball at home. The other option is to substitute a Superman for this move. When I create my workouts I try to think of functional alternatives to equipment that most people will have available at home. I hope you enjoy the workout!

Either option would work! The fun thing about repeating is that you will notice that you are able to get in more reps/push harder the second time you go through it. That said, if you get bored easily and do better with change move on to one of the 30-Day Challenges!

I just finished your ‘Lean Muscle Building Challenge’!!! In the past I’ve been strictly a runner (some weight experience but I hated weights.) After the birth of each of my 3 kids running/exercise became less and less frequent. I’ve been miserable about it for a least a year and then I came across your blog on Pinterest! Oh my goodness, I’m addicted to this style of workout! I wouldn’t be motivated to do it alone in my house, but I love working out with you in live time. You challenge and encourage me. I’m a month in and already seeing results. Thank you thank you!
